Ancient Finnish style, juniper rye ale.
Medium cloudy, medium orange, with some gold color. Quite subtle, spiced, medium toasted grain aroma. Very slight edge from the rye and hardly noticeable juniper flavor. A subtle general savory spice, in the taste.
IBU: 8

And here we have a rye malt sahti.
Looks standard hazy amber in color but absolutely no head at all is present.
It presents with a dank earthy aroma with a juniper resin highlights. Other than that, it is a pretty standard brown ale scent.
There is a pleasing gin flavored tart astringency to the front of the sip that melts away, to be replaced with a chorus of walnut and pecan nut brown malt flavor, finish is sweet and lingering. The flavor is a lot better than the merely average nose would have suggested. Perhaps my perception of the nose was hampered by the lack of head?
Carbonation is tingly like a sparkling wine again. I'm noticing a trend where if the carbonation is sparkly the head structure suffers. Medium body heft, but carbonated as if it were lighter. Doesn't quite match up..
This one has a winning flavor and nose, but needs work on the carbonation and head issues.
